OK, we've all got our idiosyncratic personal weaknesses, and Yiddish culture, eradicated (almost!) by the type of murderous thugs who are now taking over this country, is one of mine.  This show pays tribute to Yiddish singer-songwriter/poet and general cultural powerhouse Beyle Schaechter-Gottesman.  It features many of the leading Yiddish musicians in the world.  (In Yiddish with a pdf translation of texts available.)
